The foregoing power and authorization shall be subject to the following provisions: (1) Grants may be made available to any person, organization, corporation, or agency for any of the following purposes: (a) To enable such entity to act as the child advocate coordinator in any judicial district. (b) To enable such entity to recruit, organize and administer a panel of guardians ad litem and volunteer lawyers to represent guardians ad litem. (c) To enable such entity to recruit, organize, train and support persons or entities to act as guardian ad litem coordinators in judicial districts which do not yet have guardian ad litem coordinators. (d) To enable such entity to pay the administrative and other miscellaneous expenses incurred in carrying out the provisions of the guardian ad litem program. (2) The grant administrator shall endeavor in his allocation of funds available to him to foster the development and operation of a guardian ad litem program in each judicial district in the state; provided, however, the grant administrator shall have no obligation to seek out or organize child advocate coordinators or persons willing to act as such in judicial districts lacking a child advocate coordinator. (3) Funds available to the grant administrator from the guardian ad litem account may be also used to pay the grant administrator's cost of performing its duties and obligations pursuant to this chapter. |
